It's been a while, but I've now put up a new version of the demo for Tropi. Most of the changes I made here were based on the comments I received when I originally posted footage of the first demo on Reddit, and users gave their thoughts on what can be improved.

Here's a list of the changes for those wondering.

• Decreased the movement speed of the level backgrounds.
• Minimized the size of the HUD's graphics
• Implemented an effect that would cause the coins to move towards Tropi when they reach a certain relative distance to the coins.
• Allowed Tropi to use their boots and guns to collect coins, rather than just their body as it was originally.
• Added a screen shake effect when an enemy is attacked.
• Altered Tropi's hit animation to make it more noticeable.

By the way, Tropi is the name of the main character. I bring this up because I wasn't sure if that fact was known to anyone.

I'm currently working on a version of the demo to be compatible with HTML5 so it can get more attention and allow more people to play it. I'm also thinking of adding some tutorial messages and a checkpoint system after seeing my students play the game, and struggling to make it past the first half of the level.

Aside from that, I'm currently working on the world map and trying to implement Tropi's equivalent of Rayman's Lums or Crash Bandicoot's gems. It's almost finished, so I'm gonna have put in some extra effort and create a few new levels.
